I'm not sure if it ties in to this particular issue, but it seems to me that one of the causes of the military hospital problems is the fondness of Congress for those earmark pork budget lines -- billions upon billions are voted for military spending but many of those billions are wasted on earmark projects to spread some pork money around in congressional home districts. The military ends up short of funds, the congress creeps get elected and reelected, and the taxpayers get to pay.
